This week on mind-mapping.org, I have added four new visual thinking tools, Debategraph, Maltego, MindBerry and Prezi.
Debategraph
This is a wiki tool that allows public debates to be conducted in a visual environment.
Maltego
Described as a forensics application for the mining, gathering and representation of information in a meaningful way, this is a flexible development of an application once known as ‘Evolution’.
MindBerry
Mind mapping for the BlackBerry. AFAIK the sole offering on that phone, compared with at least eight for the iPhone. Must be cool to have the market to yourself!
Prezi
Prezi is a beautifully designed and elegant zooming approach to presentations. Freedom from PowerPoint’s one-screen-after-another at last, offering a fluid flow through the ideas to be exhibited.

information management software
Hello Mind Mappers!
Are you using Mind Manager 8? We’re looking for a few good Mind Mappers for a Beta Test of a new personal development and team building Add-in for Mind Manager 8.
You Get Great Software at No Cost
The beta test will require you to download and install a Mind Manager add-in which will then appear on your Mind Manager menu (along with your other add-ins if you have them). As part of the beta test you will receive a free download of the software add-in along with the best selling book “StrengthsFinder 2.0” or “Strengths Based Management”. These items have a total retail value in excess of $200, but you’ll receive them at no cost to you in exchange for your careful participation in the beta test. We estimate that the entire beta test, including experimenting with your new software and filling out the feedback survey will require approximately 3-4 hours of your time.
You’ll Actually Enjoy the Process
Of course we’re a little bit biased, but we think you’ll find the process interesting and informative. The software add-in is designed to graphically identify and create a mind map for your top five personal strengths as well as build teams of people to work together according to the strengths needed for a particular project or objective.
